There is 12 days delay in my periods and the home pregnancy test says negative. Should I wait for longer time to take a test again. How accurate it is.

Hello, you may wait till 15 days post missed periods and repeat the test. If still negative and no menses, then you can opt for a withdrawal bleed with progesterones.
